Argh, I have schlepped to the copy place thrice in two days. I don't like it. It gave me an excuse to go to Au Bon Pain though...which I got a little too excited about and now I have Wrap-Consumption Remorse and will probably break my roll-y chair. Hm. I will just pretend I ate a salad. There, I feel much better.
The T ride today did give me a bit of time to do so some interesting people watching, I saw a middle aged overweight man wearing a wizard hat and reading - Harry Potter? No, Run Rabbit Run. Of course Harry Potter, Prisoner of Azkaban.
But there was a little baby staring at me the WHOLE RIDE from Arlington. It's like this hostile thing - the baby is staring at you and everyone is all cooing "Awwwww little Caleb/Ethan/Gavin finds you fascinating!" but you HAVE to look back and smile the entire time or else the whole train thinks you're a baby hating monster. His giant extended family (taking the baby for a Tuesday T ride with ma, pop, gramma, and grandpa? woo-ee!) thought it was a hoot but in my head I was all Mark Wahlberg-like "Why you gotta stare at me baby? I'm not kiddin around this is serious."
Argh. Say hi to your mother for me.
